Lace up for Jodi's Race 5K, a truly inspiring event set to take place on June 13, 2026, in the heart of Denver, Colorado. This much-anticipated 5K run/walk, along with a 1-mile walk option, welcomes thousands of participants to Denver's picturesque City Park, with activities centered around the City Park Pavilion. It stands as a powerful tribute to Jodi Brammeier, whose vision in 2010 created a legacy of raising critical awareness for ovarian cancer. As one of the largest ovarian cancer awareness events in the country, Jodi's Race has become the #1 fundraiser for the Colorado Gynecologic Cancer Alliance, fostering a vibrant and supportive community atmosphere where survivors are celebrated and those lost are honored.

Runners can anticipate a fast and flat road course, ideal for achieving personal bests or simply enjoying a scenic journey through City Park. Typical race day conditions in mid-June bring highs around 85°F and lows around 53°F, with a minimal 8% chance of precipitation, making for a generally pleasant running experience, though hydration and sun protection are always recommended. Along the course, designated water stations ensure runners stay refreshed, with additional snacks and drinks awaiting at the finish line. The event is renowned for its inclusive, family-friendly environment, featuring a Family Fun Zone with lawn games and face painting, and welcoming both leashed, well-behaved dogs and strollers on the course.

Jodi's Race is more than just a competition; it's a moving celebration of life and a beacon of hope. The race day atmosphere is famously colorful, with ovarian cancer survivors proudly displaying bead necklaces for each year since their diagnosis. Participants can also attend a special Survivor Breakfast and witness memorial wreaths honoring loved ones, creating profound and special memories. Join this impactful event to support a vital cause, enjoy a well-organized run, and contribute to the ongoing fight against gynecologic cancers.
